In addition to what Robby said, you can work on a collection in your
user directory (this is the directory that you get when you evaluate
(find-system-path 'addon-dir)), and if you want to work in some
specific directory, you can set the PLTCOLLECTS environment variable
to some list of paths. Setting environment variables on windows is a
little tricky, and requires a reboot. You should set it to something
like
"f:\\vork\\music\\trunk;"
semicolons seperate path parts, the last one above says that there's
an empty path at the end, which indicates the default locations. If
you do use PLTCOLLECTS, then you should know that it's a solution only
for your own private work, and for distributing code you're better off
with solutions like the ones Robby mentioned.
